Sending too many messages error

[Vicccai]

Hi. I am running a basic example (with my email and passwd inputted appropriately):

from hugchat import hugchat
from hugchat.login import Login

sign = Login(user, pass)
cookies = sign.login()

chatbot = hugchat.ChatBot(cookies=cookies.get_dict())

query_result = chatbot.chat("Hi!")
print(query_result) # or query_result.text or query_result["text"]

I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/hugchat/hugchat.py", line 414, in _stream_query
_type = obj['type']
~~~^^^^^^^^
KeyError: 'type'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

raise ChatError(f"Failed to parse response: {res}")
hugchat.exceptions.ChatError: Failed to parse response: {"message":"You are sending too many messages. Try again later."}

When I go to HuggingChat online, I see just a series of 15 of the same message (Hi!) in the most recent conversation. How can I fix this?

Hi! Thanks for your issue, we will deal with your issue as soon as possible.

it has request rate limit which means you can only send certain amount of request in a certain amount of time.
but i dont really know what strategy it sets, whether it's related to your ip address or just your account.

for now, just reduce your usage of huggingchat (in this account).

Hi, thanks for the reply. The issue is that each time I call chatbot.chat('Hi!'), it sends the Hi message 15+ times, which leads to the error. I never get a response back, even if it's the first time I call chat().

I get this same issue, with the message being sent many times when I look on the HuggingFace website. This seems to be an issue that has popped up recently - this did not happen previously.

This seems similar to this comment I left on another issue. I did some testing, though, and am unable to reproduce it now.
How often are these messages happening?

[kwon514]

Oddly enough, I'm also unable to reproduce it now within the past 2ish hours, despite still having issues until then.

I think what happened is Hugging Chat sometimes is down/slow. Last night I was receiving network error on Hugging Chat and wouldn't get any responses. I think the way the API works is it resends the request if it doesn't receive a response, hence the sending too many messages. It's working fine now, with no network error on Hugging Chat.

I am also receiving this error on first query

Perhaps this error is due to issues with the HuggingChat servers. If you see the attached video, you will see that I am having a similar error with both the HuggingChat UI and with the hugchat library
